Death Of Jerry Tuohy.

After 81 long and painful illness, Jerry
M. Tuohy, one of the brightest young
men St. Peter ever produced. died at
o'clock Sunday morning
Jerry learned the printers trade in
this office many years ago. and was af-
te17vards engaged in similar work on
the Pioneer Press in st. Paul. At this
work he continued until called by the
management to fill the position OF tray-
cling correspondent. In this work he
was successful and finally became tele-
graph editor of the Fargo Argus.
Under Judge Mcconnell he was ap-
pointed clerk of the court of Pembiua
county, which Office he held up to the
time of his last sickness.
The Pioneer Press, in speaking Of his
death, says that while in Pembina he
became all active and successful politi-
clan, and succeeded in carrying Re-
publican county by a large Dem ocratic
majority.
The deceased was an ambitious and
capable man. The honor which is justly
his due be attained through untiring
and persistent effort, and to see him
called away in the prime Of life just
when activity and effort were about to
lay reward at his feet will ever be a sad
recollection to his many friends.
The funeral was held at the Catholic
church On Sunday.-St. Peter Tribune.

A London correspondent Of the New
York Times speaks thus Of T. Nj. Healy,
M. P:
Of al! the fierce, bitter, coldly-fero-
cious assailants who have lifted their
voices in st. Stephens against British
rule these last dozen years, Healy is the
one whose knout lash tongue has raised
the biggest and reddest welts. To see
him in his place, just below the gang
way, standing with pale-set face boldly
uplifted against the tiers of seated To-
ries opposite; to hear the terrific tongue
lashing which he alone can lay upon
them-the scorn, invective, biting sar-
casm, burning wratk-is to have an ex-
perieDce not to be matched in any other
Parliament house of Europe. In the
use of jeering satire, which. amid
laughter, cuts to the bone, he has no
rival save Sir William Harcourt, and
no equal in him. When we bear in
mind that this man-who was, as q
poor village boy, earning his own living
at the age of thirteen-is six years
younger than Lord Randolph Churchill,
and yet commands the ear of the House
as readily as that son Of a duke. it must
be admitted that his qualities and his
position are alike phenomenal.

the Jesuits in America during the six
teenth and seventeenth centuries. Later
on similar establishments We're started

| the ultimate basis Of operations in Eu-
rope, and secondary basis at Cairo
These establishments consisted Of
priests and lay brothers for the active
work. and of European and native nuns
for the instruction of the women and
children. The mission that hitherto
had added more to the death roll of mis-
sioners than to the list Of converts, now
began co enter on period Of prosper
ity. The stations of Kordofan, of Jebel
Nuba and of Berber were formed, and
that Of Khartoum was enlarged. AL
ready fresh conquests we're being
planned, when death struck down the
jealous apostle.
The fatigues Of a. long excursion to
El-Obeid, Delen, and the mountains Of
Nubia proved too much for Mgr. Conl-'
boni's already suffering health, and on
the 9th of August, 1881, we find him Ill
at Khartourn. On the 5th of October
violent fever set in. Mgr. Comboni had
studied the symptoms and progress Of
the disease which had SO often thinned
the ranks Of nhissioners, and he soon
perceived that his end was near. Call
ing his missioners round his deaGh--bed,
he begged tbeir pardon for the bad ex-
ample he might nave given them.
After receiving the last Sacrament
with the deepest devotion, and for the
last time blessing the intrepid mission
ers who had shared his fatigues, 'tthe
sons Of MS heart" as he affectionatsly
called them, he invoked a blessing Oh
each station and on its benefactors
Then he renewed the offering of his life
for the conversion Of Nigritia, and On
the 10th Of October, 1881, he breathed
his last. AL night long, it is said, Ia
mentations were heard in Khartoum;
Catholics, schismatics, Maho'nedans,
all bitterly wepy for the loss Of the great
ttBishop OF the Blacks" On October
II, the first Vicar Apostolic Of Nigritia
was inferred with military honors, and
laid in the mortuary chapel by the side
of Father Macmillan RylIo. s, j., the

To the PUBLIC.

EDITOR BULLETIN The mass
meeting of yesterday (June 30) l
understood was called to give an
opportunity to everybody to express
his opinion and l must confess that
l was very much disappointed, when
the meeting refused 10 listen to the
views of Hon. Paul Isenberg. Every
body who knows this gentleman must
admit that he is one of the best and
purest characters of the Hawaiian
Islands and his views in general are
the same as those of every honest
man of this country. Now if he
differs in the selection of the way to
accomplish the best for all people,
why not give him chance to ex-
plain his views. l know him to be
equal if not superior to most respect
able men of the Hawaiian Islands,
but with one drawback. ''He is too
scrupulous We people of the
Hawaiian Islands are not used to
such kind of character and there
fore are slow in understanding what
it means to be "too scrupulous. "
He dislikes anything that smacks of
force and violation, but is willing at
any time to use his influence and
power for the benefit of any OPP
pressed party. 1t is fact that he
has helped thousands of people on
account of his good nature, kind
heart, good will and pure character,
and therefore l maintain that he was
not treated right by the meeting in
refusing to listen to his explanation.
The above lines were written i'm
mediately after the meeting aud /
know them to express the feelings
of all Germans. l mean of course
Of all respectable Germans who al
though they may disagree with the
expressed sentiments of Mr.. Isen-
berg still demand due respect to his
character and standing.

CAPTAIN HAYWARD's POPULARITY.

The steamship Mariposa will sail
to-day for San Francisco, with the
outward English mails, at 2 o'clock.
The popularity of the Mariposa and
of Captain Hayward is shown by
the fact that there is a great crowd
of passengers, although the season
is now we'll advanced for travellers
to Europe. Amongst those for
England, from Auckland, are Mr..
A. G. Horton, one of the proprietors
of this journal, and Mr.. P. Co.
misky, who is accompanied by his
wife. Sir j. B. Thurston is also a
passenger, EN- route to Washington,
on diplomatic mission; whilst the
Australian passengers include the
Rev. Mr.. Strele, DR.. Dundee, and
Colonel Wilbraham. The Mari
posa's mails are due at London on

SUGAR PROSPECTS.

In letter which a gentleman Of
this town has received from a friend
largely interested in beet root sugar
manufacturing, the following sem
tence occurs:-
"My people write to me that
everything is very blue-dark blue
almost black in Russia, and all
over Europe. n The main
stay of the country the sugar in
dustry is not sold since 1881. So
you see sugar business is not always
very sweet
Sugar planters of these Islands
need not accordingly be so very
downhearted. There is less sugar
in the sugar enterprise in Europe
than here.
